Marks and Spencer has sadly announced that they will be closing their nine stores that they have on mainland Spain, apparently due to restructuring of the company and also, because they wish to focus on their stores within the United Kingdom.

The management will close their four shopping centres in Madrid, the two in Barcelona, and the ones in Bilbao, Sevilla and Valencia before the end of this year.

Nevertheless, the two franchises in Tenerife and Gran Canaria will be kept open.
